Title: free limes
Post by: Bonsai on May 08, 2011, 07:08:56 am

Apologies to all those who don't live in Perth  :-[  I have a lime tree on my verge which is bursting with fruit and I can't find ways to use them all. If anyone is living around the Fremantle area and would like to help themselves to as much as they like, PM me and I'll give you the address.

I've pickled, chutney'd, preserved and marmaladed myself to a standstill and the tree's still laden  :o

Lucky Perthites and a very generous offer Bonsai.  If it is on the verge, I would have though any passers by would have helped themselves by now - maybe they can't think of what to do with them?

Margaritas sound good. ;D ;D
 I read somewhere on here that you can freeze whole limes (from Andie maybe but if not, thank you to whoever posted that) I have been give a few so I'm going to try it. Margaritas all year round - can't get much better than that

Hi Cookie1 - the tree fruits almost all year so very likely to still have some in June.

I thought of juicing the limes but then I'd have a freezer full of juice and a tree covered in more fruit. The margarita plan sounds good though 8)
